    Watching it only for the BOYS

    Started this drama because of Jae wook ( he is so handsome) but the thing is this drama is kinda boring and irritating. I have tried so many times to sit through the episodes but still not finding it interesting at all. The Instagram edits of this drama are great, maybe all the good scenes are available as spoilers that's why I don't find the episodes worth watching.

    The second Male lead ( In ha) is good too. But his character is so complicated ( don't know if he is loyal to his friend or not).

    The female lead is so irritating ( we don't like her at all, maybe it's her character which makes her look cunning and selfish). I see no chemistry with her and the male leads ( it all seems quite forced).

    The second female lead is so sassy and cool ( i actually liked her a lot ). Most of the fans wish her to be with Tae Ho ( but it's one sided love).

    The storyline is complicated ( revenge --- after 5 years --- after 5 years ), so it's not fun. Actually it is a decent drama but not my cup of tea.

    I love Lee Jae Wook but...

    Ah i am so disappointed. Both the lead actors are so great but the script is bad. The side characters are very badly written. Entire script feels disconnected. The rich chaebols look and act like they just got rich yesterday. The background score isn't going well with the storyline. The actress shouldn't even be here. She isn't needed. Humor is there only in a few scenes. That's what got me watching. But I'm disappointed beyond measure.

    I really really tried to like this series because of Lee Jae Wook. But even my love has its limits.

    600 words are difficult to write for this series. I wish they had a better editor and script writer. 😭

    Choi Hee Jin DESERVES BETTER

    First of all i wont blame Hong Suzu casting directors and overall production team should have had a better sense what they are doing...didnt they see rehearsals of the scenes? Or they didnt had one? Editing in this show is meh, writing is meh, the only saving grace is Choi Hee Jin and the actor who plays her brother but him turning into villian had no development like out of nowhere he turned his back on Tae Oh?! There were unnecessary time jumps god the whole script is a diaster! Well I hope in the end Choi Hee Jin gets a well deserving lead role my girl always nails her 2 min screen time which is a crime itself knowing how she steals the spotlight she has better chemistry with both male leads im sorry but i just cant feel Hong Suzu's character presence for me she's just there i wish her best hope she improves by initially taking small roles or even a supporting character that will help her a lot.

    Just amazing

    Ladies and gentlemen we are up for a thriller.

    Lee jae wook as charming as ever still got that handsome face, and what a way to make a comeback to the kd series.

    Let's all look forward to an amazing scenes all through out the movie.

    Hope the lady kills her own character too, might be her first time with jae wook in a movie thou she's cute enough

    I really don't know how everything is going to end but for sure we hope for an amazing thriller this sequence

    As for IN HA, definitely know he will deliver as calm as you like

    So we should all appreciate what Korea has brought to us indeed thank you and enjoy it.

    The Female Lead Can't Act!!!!

    Who is the casting director? Why are you casting a female lead who can't act? She only has one expression on her face and that is just so annoying. Her character is a big hindrance to this show. I like the male lead. I wanted to watch this but I am dropping it because of the cliches, the boring narrative, and most especially, the poor acting from the female lead. How did she get that role? Such poor casting for the female lead. The second lead should've gotten the lead role, she is very expressive and such a good actress. I am only watching this again if the female lead gets killed in this story. Save the show please get a good actress!
